Hi all. Today I'm presenting a really interesting video to you from Russian Youtuber Roman, or 'NFKRZ' (which I believe means something a little rude!). He presents life usually from his Russian hometown Chelyabinsk, and had collaborated with 'Mr Bald' from Bald and Bankrupt fame. I will be highlighting more of his videos in the …

Howdy all again. Yes, this time I’m turning my attention to the eastern part of the continent of Europe.
